[Black] Very handy and comfortable. Also, the customer service of B&H is great. Highly recommended bag and store.

[Zipper] A very helpful person at the B&H store in Manhattan helped me pick out this bag to go with the long lens I was purchasing for safari.


It is a very versatile camera bag that has served a real sweet spot for me:
It's big enough to carry long lenses and multiple bodies.
It's durable enough for harsh, wet conditions (using the rain cover).
It's lightweight enough to not add too much bulk to my travels.
It's proportioned properly to serve as an airline carry-on.
It's got lots of storage spaces for small items like spare batteries, cards, wipes, covers, backup drive, plus two side pockets with straps for monopod, tripod, or water bottle.
And it's got comfortable backpack, sternum, and waste straps for versatile carrying.

On safari. I carried 2 bodies, 3 lenses, a monopod and tilt head, with a variety of accessories, plus backup drive and binoculars, all in one bag. It was my carry on luggage for the international flight. On the safari cruisers, I was able to keep multiple bodies handy at my side and ready for shooting under the large zipper flap.

After a month of rough conditions, it still looked like new.

I've since taken in birding, and with less gear in the bag, it's an even easier lightweight carry.

I'm very pleased with this bag.

[2.065 lb] I own more bags than I want to. Like most photographers I'm in search of the perfect bag. Well I still haven't found it, but this Tenba comes closer than others I own from Mindshift, Lowepro, and Think Tank. With the others I found myself switching bags constantly to fit the use case. The Tenba does just about everything well. Now I rarely use the others unless I need to go very small or very large.�

The Tenba is well built, lightweight, very functional, and is deceivingly roomy. The only minor issue I have is the interior pockets could easily be better.

[Yes] This backpack is rugged, stands up on its own (with a water-resistant bottom), and very comfortable. . The straps (sternum and belt) are long enough and padded, so no cutting into your body.

There is enough space inside for my equipment; I usually take one camera, a tripod, and three lenses (50, 55-250, and 70-200). I also have room for a water bottle and snacks.

[Zipper] It's a great backpack. Very comfortable and well built. I really like the accessory tabs on the front. I use two 18 velcro cable ties around them. Then, I attach various belt system cases to the velcro straps.

[Zipper] I really like this backpack. Definitely wanted to go with Pelican, because every product I have gotten of theirs is awesome. Needed a backpack for picking up a few items at the store and taking my lunch to work on the days I take my motorcycle. I like the reflective logo, there is plenty of space, and multiple pockets. The top zip section has a special zipper to seal out rain. B&H got this to me within days of order, always right, always quick, and great prices. Going to get a few of the 35s next.

[Universal] This backpack is the perfect size for my commute! It’s high quality and stylish! The only issue…I love it so much, that now I want a larger one for travel.

[Zipper] I was looking for a smaller pack pack that would hold my Nikon Z9. It's a snug fit, but works great. I have an L bracket and 24-70 f2.8 S lens on the camera. In a pinch, I can also put my 100-400 lens or my flash, not both, in the top compartment. There also is room for my 14 - 24 f4 and battery charger.

I am getting used to accessing my camera through the back of the camera bag.

This is my second Tenba bag and I am impressed with the quality of them both.

[Zipper] Nice backpack to wear

[Yes] Perfect for my needs
